Team members Irina, Ptolemy, Ozo and Sandra were delighted “thank you so much for your platform (the Rise API) It’s very inspiring”, Irina said.

It was the first time the Rise API has been offered for use in a hackathon environment.

The benefits of the platform are to fast track the delivery of a proof of concept for a gamified performance management solution – in this case the ‘game’ involved engaging UN Volunteers to share challenges with friends, so by spreading news about the UN.
